Burglaries Down

  • A man who was breaking into a home was shot to death by a property owner in the Heart of Chicago neighborhood this morning, authorities said.

    Mario Viramontes, 31, was declared dead on the scene in 2000 block of West 21st Street at 9:22 a.m., according to the Cook County medical examiner’s office.

    Police were called to the scene about 9:10 a.m. for a burglary, and when they arrived, they found that a “male offender” who had been trying to commit a burglary had been shot by the homeowner, said Police News Affairs [...].

    No one has been charged in the incident....
Here's to many more.

The homeowner's FOID card was expired. He got charged for that.

They did end up dinging the homeowner for an expired FOID card. That in itself should be a life sentence (assuming you're not a Daley).

In all, a job well done by the homeowner.

Going to be seeing a whole lot more of these once ISP gets out CCW permits.

Except they won't be from inside homes.

Let's hope his count of expired FOID gets some help from the NRA. Let's abolish that stupid card since either way the ISP is terrible at revoking them.

Who's the asshole supervisor who certainly ordered the arrest of a citizen protecting his family. WTF.Whatever happen to the tool we used to call discretion?. This is a case I'm sure the NRA will look into, in bringing action against the City in an attempt to remove this requirement for a FOID.

Please tell me that's not true. If so, I hope the NRA takes up his cause and goes to trial on this. Since when does a Constitutional right require a card from the government, especially a government with a track record of denying that right?

Where is your First Amendment Freedom of Speech card issued by the government? Where is your Freedom of Worship card? These socialists and their anti gun agenda need to be stopped in their tracks.

A parade should be given for the homeowner.

He should be handed the key to the city.

We should pass the hat for his defense fees on the FOID charge. If he were a cartel drug trafficker charged with a dozen Class Xs, or a relative of Daley, I'd say he has nothing to worry about -- the SAO will SOL. But here's a citizen defending his home against a home invasion -- the Cook Co SAO is likely to come down hard on this citizen.

Unless there is someone home at the time of the "attempt entry" the crime is being re-classified as damage to property, check your stats

P.S. Excellent shooting, give that person an automatic concealed carry permit

Its an affirmative defense in a justified shooting that you do not even need an FOID card.

Mc Dummy is bragging about shooting, murders and crime is down 50% for January from last year. Never once did he mention the weather. He better pray for floods in June, July and August.

Good job by the homeowner. And, fortunately for him, he lives in America. If this had happened in England, the homeowner would have gone to prison for the shooting, and be forced to pay damages to the family of the offender.

God Bless America!

Gives them an excuse to snatch the guy's gun. Now he will have a hell of a time buying another one because he has been charged with a firearm offense. If his name were only Vanecko he would be OK.

The FOID card charge should be thrown out! It amounts to a silly parking ticket!
